Beginning in February, the spine-tingling Mexican guitarists Rodrigo y Gabriela will embark on a brief spring tour through the U.S. in support of their critically acclaimed sophomore album, 11:11. Musically, the pair brings forth electrifying sound transferred through their simplistic set-up of just two acoustic guitars; however, experiencing them live is a whole other thing in itself.
Between Gabriela’s breath-taking rhythm guitar playing, in which she gracefully caresses the strings while using her outer fingers to pound against its frame, and Rodrigo’s outstanding flamenco stylistic playing, you won’t be able to take your eyes off either of them. Since its release last September, 11:11 has more than exceeded expectations, receiving nothing short of praise and support. So, if you get the opportunity sometime this Spring, definitely check out this dynamic pair. Trust us, you won’t be disappointed!
The newly announced dates kick off in late February in Washington, DC travel through the Midwest and South before capping things off on March 21st in Florida. A tour of France, a one-off at New York’s Radio City Music Hall, and a London residency are scheduled for the weeks and months that follow. Tickets are available via Ticketmaster.com.
